Nah, it's not your system, KNTV is, without a doubt, the most inept digital TV operation in the bay area. Didn't watch FNL, but tried to watch L&O Criminal...

Not sure... I usually don't watch them every day... I selective record some shows (mostly on weekends) on TiVo. Anyway, I just checked the station's website...
Thanks for the response Richard, as usual, you have a handle on the situation...are you sure we can't get you to go back to work at KNTV!?!? ;-) Jim ... ...

Larry, I was poking around trying to find some detailed pictures of Sutro Tower. On some of the pictures it appears that there are some houses ... pretty close...
Wikipedia has a page on Sutro Tower: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sutro_tower On the links from that page, I found website run by a NIMBY-ish citizens group....
... Interesting. The neighbors of the tower also raised quite a fuss when the digital antennas were being added to the tower, but they didn't stop that...
... people think they are - ugly - going to fall on them - irradiating them and causing caner it's the same reason san francisco has such horrible cell phone ...
... I was mostly refering to the "ugly" catagory. People that are way too far away to worry about things falling over or microwaving them get really upset...

... One followup if I may, there is something that looks like a big, elongated, octagonal parking lot near the tower (visible in satellite views). What is...
Personally, I think Sutro Tower is one of the prettiest antenna structures in the world. It's should be considered at least as much a SF landmark as that...
... The octagonal thing is a covered water reservoir for the City. Go to the Yahoo group homepage: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HDTV-in-SFbay/ and look in the...

I have another pair of questions that our insiders can hopefully shed some light on: 1) Say there was a network, we'll call them ABC. And they wanted to run a...
Personally I think that the ugliest thing about Sutro Tower is it's location. It was built when the Bay Area powers thought that SF was alpha and omega of the...
